The different receptions of the work of Martin Heidegger represent a significant aspect to understand the evolution of the Spanish Philosophy of the second half of century XX. In a context of crisis of the modernity and the search of a philosophical solution up to the task of its time period, the philosophical reception of Ortega was polemical and has been object of different interpretations. Early received by his disciples Zubiri and Gaos, and of special relevancy for Zambrano, the work (...) of Heidegger contributed to oust both Ortega and his heritage during the times of Madrid School during Francoist dictatorship. From the scholastic philosophy of the forties, and from Heidegger his-self, he abandoned The Idea of Principle in Leibniz, work that has been just published as a new official edition including previous work notes. In this way, in our work we will make a critical itinerary about that initial reception and its most relevant readings, this time analyzed under the methodological frame provided by the Sociology of Philosophy.

This paper deals with prolegomenal stances required for a proper understanding of the paradoxical nature of Heidegger’s Sein und Zeit. It shall be argued that Heidegger’s magnum opus does not inquire into the meaning of being in order to render an answer to the so-called Seinsfrage. In fact, several answers have already been given traditionally, which are founded on the being/beings non-differentiation (being as God, substance, nature, subject, will and so forth), that is, being has been turned into a topic (...) whilst it is essentially non-topical, for only an entity can be accounted for as topical or thematic. This is the reason why assessing Heidegger as the ‘thinker of being’ can be misleading, if not overtly wrong, when by this is meant that being be conceived of as something that can be thematized.

Na vida quotidiana, preocupação e despreocupação coexistem. Também o bom e o mau humor. O fundo ontológico do cuidado e a superfície ôntica do mundo da vida manifestam-se dessas duas maneiras, entre outras. Mas estas duas modalidades afectivas permitem aceder não tanto aos momentos singulares de manifestação afectiva em uma ou outra situação concreta, quanto ao próprio fundo do exercício da vida fáctica, na sua duplicidade ôntico-ontológica como ser-aí e ser-o-aí. É essa potencial variação do mesmo cuidado de ser à (...) maneira humana que me proponho desenvolver, tendo por base textos heideggerianos dos anos 40 e 50, em que se tematiza a boa disposição ou Heiterkeit, semanticamente próxima mas não coincidente com serenidade e alegria.
